What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

New wheels

 

What all did this entail and where did you find the head unit?

 

It hurts. But It just reminded me when I used to have a Wrangler. I replaced the windshield three times in 9 years.

 

quoted the OP’s answers to those questions.

 

All Terrains & Tint!

 

Thank you very much for the kind words. Right now, looking like about 3 weeks out before shipping.

 

@banjoGrampa I’m not sure of the exact price but Firestone actually has a coupon available right now for 20$ off. I got unlimited alignments there for my old Subaru, cost 100$ in 2011, if that helps.

 

You're in for 3k for gears/full install kits and labor no front locker?

I am assuming your numbers are for new gears (avg about 1,300.00 w/complete axle kits) plus labor on each diff, good avg price is 400 each.(thats lowish)

ARB lockers are in the mid nines each.

once I ship my diffs back, I'm right around $3,400. give or take some shipping costs, with new gears, lockers front & rear, solid spacer in the rear diff, and the ARB in the front replaces the needle bearing so thats gone too.

So I'm at around $400 more with a solid full day/ weekend of wrenching and locked front and rear. No waiting on the truck and I get to make terrible content for all of you. Thats a win for me.

 

Appreciate your help

 

Let me know if you have any other questions. A few pages back me and @MiTacoTRD went pretty in depth.

 

Installed westcott design 0 degree sliders. I'll post a review later...but damn these are high quality. Best welds I've ever seen

 

And I fly the Maple Leaf...because this country adopted me!

 

It's like I just found out that Santa actually does exist. Yes... I was sent a coupon by @svermilyea. Even though I just got an alignment no more than a month ago, I still want to go and get a lifetime supply right now! (I'll actually wait till I need one), but this is the first i've ever heard of lifetime alignments. Maybe because my gen 1 taco never needed one in the 210,000 miles I had it(true fact)

 

Awesome, man!! Hope you both enjoy them as much as me!

Man I love that color

 

I did a second and a third thing today. Truck got ceramic coated and added running boards! The running boards are actually the Gen 2 ones, but they fit Gen 3 just the same. Here they are from Toytota. Feeling pretty clean!

 

Me too, especially coming from a plain white Chevy 1500 Work Truck

 

Got the ARB recovery point installed. Not near as hard to do as some people complain about, and I'm no professional mechanic by any stretch of the imagination.

 

Wheels are trash. Wish there was a dislike button for posts like this.

 

Love the 2nd gen boards on a 3rd gen.
